Millionaires Sukhi and Kiran Ghuman are said to have given patients cheaper, unregulated versions of lung and pancreatic cancer drugs to up their profits claims they strongly deny.

They face extradition to the US where it is alleged unregulated meds were smuggled from India and Sri Lanka.

Prosecutors say the drugs were administered to patients at medical clinics owned by Sukhi Ghuman in California and Arizona. His wife Kiran was vice-president of one of the clinics.
